The world of film and television begins from childhood

Zhou Chen suddenly grinned and said, "It finally came out. Thank you, Teacher Shao, and Brother Xiaoguang."

Cai Xiaoguang patted Zhou Chen on the shoulder and sighed, "Why are you saying that? This is what I should do. I just hate myself for being powerless and not being able to rescue you earlier."

Although Zhou Chen's tone was light, he said firmly: "Brother Xiaoguang, I will remember this matter in my heart, and I will definitely repay you double in the future."

He didn't know how much role Cai Xiaoguang played in saving him, but he definitely helped. He was a man who clearly distinguished between gratitude and grudges, and he would remember the help others gave him.

Cai Xiaoguang laughed and said, "Let's not talk about this for now. I'm glad you're okay."

Zhou Chen nodded and looked at Shao Jingwen again. Shao Jingwen immediately understood what Zhou Chen meant.

"Bingkun, don't worry, your family is fine. Your mother and your wife don't know you were arrested. I told them that you were out of the province on a business trip as you said, and they believed it. So when you go back, don't let anything slip."

Zhou Chen expressed his gratitude solemnly: "Thank you, Teacher Shao, thank you."

"Ugh."

Shao Jingwen sighed heavily: "In fact, you were implicated. Someone was jealous of you and reported you, so you suffered. After these days of investigation, it was found that you had no problems. However, you were released so quickly thanks to the help of Dean Ma and Qu Shuji. They used their connections to save you. You must thank them well."

"Uncle Ma and Aunt Qu? Okay, I understand. Thank you."

Zhou Chen was surprised to hear that it was Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen who saved him, but also not surprised, because Qu Xiuzhen was a very principled person, but also a very emotional person.

Not to mention Ma Shouchang, the two of them were definitely friends regardless of age difference, so he was not surprised that they could help him.

But he accepted this favor.

Cai Xiaoguang said, "Let's go, Bingkun. You definitely can't go home in this state. Go to my place first to wash up and change clothes."

Shao Jingwen said: "Zheng Juan asked me to bring you some clothes, saying that she would send them to you. Haha, it's just right for you to change into them."

Zhou Chen did not refuse, got in the car and went to where Cai Xiaoguang lived.

Cai Xiaoguang lives with his father, but his father seldom comes home, so it is basically the same as living alone.

After taking a shower, changing clothes, getting his hair done and having a meal at Cai Xiaoguang's house, Zhou Chen rode his bicycle home.

At Zhou’s house, the family is finishing their meal.

Suddenly Zhou Rui asked: "Mom, when will Dad come back? I haven't seen him for a long time."

Feng Yue also raised her spoon, spilled the food all over the table, and shouted, "Aunt, Aunt, I miss my uncle too. When will he come back?"

It has been more than ten days since Zhou Chen left. These days, the two children often asked this question, and Zheng Juan's answer was always the same, and today was no exception.

"Ruirui, Yueyue, Dad is on a business trip. He is out to make money. Only when he makes money can he buy you delicious food and fun things."

Zhou Rui pouted and said aggrievedly: "Then I don't want delicious food or fun things, I just want my dad."

"Me too."

Li Suhua gently touched Feng Yue's head and said, "Good children, you are all good children. Your father and uncle will be very happy when they hear this."

Then she asked Zheng Juan, "Juan'er, Bingkun has been gone for almost half a month, why don't you go to his workplace tomorrow to ask when he will be back?"

Zheng Juan hesitated and said, "This is not good. If I go, will it cause any trouble for Bingkun's work?"

Li Suhua came to her senses after hearing this: "That's right, forget it, let's not ask. Bingkun is a very smart kid, he will definitely be fine."

Having lived with Zhou Chen for all these years, she had witnessed the abilities of this old man of hers, so although she was worried when Zhou Chen went out of the province on a "business trip", she was not too worried.

Although Zheng Guangming couldn't see Zheng Juan's expression, he knew that his sister must be worried.

"Sister, don't worry. My brother-in-law is so capable, no one can bully him. Don't worry, maybe he will be back tomorrow."

Zheng Juan was worried, but she didn't show it in front of her children and just forced a smile.

"I'm not worried, but I don't know if he's eating well and sleeping well outside. Bingkun is very clean, and I don't know if his place is clean. I don't know if he can get used to it without me helping him clean."

Since she married Zhou Chen, she has never been separated from him for such a long time. How could she not be worried?

I couldn't sleep every night, and even in my dreams, I would dream that Zhou Chen couldn't eat or sleep well...

The family started to eat slowly again. Zhou Rui and Feng Yue were not in a good mood and ate slowly. Li Suhua and Zheng Juan were not in a hurry and fed them slowly.

Suddenly, there was a sound of unlocking a door. Zheng Guangming had the sharpest ears and was the first to hear it.

"Someone opened the door, sister, go and see if it's your brother-in-law who's back."

Zheng Juan also heard the sound of the door opening, so she stood up instantly, so suddenly that the stool was knocked over, but she didn't care at all and walked quickly towards the door.

Zhou Rui also shouted happily: "Dad is back, uncle, quickly carry me down, I will go find dad."

Feng Yue also shouted: "I want to go too, I want to go too."

As soon as Zhou Chen opened the door, he saw Zheng Juan standing in front of him with tears in her eyes.

"Juan'er, I'm back."

As he said this, he hugged Zheng Juan into his arms.

During the fourteen days of being imprisoned, he missed Zheng Juan and this home so much. Even with his shrewdness, he couldn't help himself when he saw Zheng Juan.

Zheng Juan cried with joy and hugged Zhou Chen tightly: "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back, the children miss you very much, mom misses you too, Guangming misses you too, I, I miss you too."

"Yes, I know, so I came back as quickly as possible. I was relieved to see that you were all right."

Zhou Chen was not really afraid of what might happen to himself. What he was most worried about were Zheng Juan and Li Suhua. These two people were now key protected persons and could not stand any stimulation at all.

"Dad, Dad." "Uncle, Uncle..."

Zhou Chen and Zheng Juan hadn't been affectionate for a few seconds when two troublemakers rushed over, one holding a leg and screaming.

Zheng Juan burst into laughter and let go of Zhou Chen. Looking at the two little ones asking for a hug, her mood improved a lot.

Zhou Chen smiled at Zheng Juan, then bent down, picked up Zhou Rui and Feng Yue, one in each hand, and made the two little guys very happy.

Seeing Li Suhua and Zheng Guangming coming over, Zhou Chen smiled and said, "Mom, I'm back. Guangming, you've worked hard these days."

Li Suhua's tears were already flowing, and she said the same thing as Zheng Juan: "I'm glad you're back, I'm glad you're okay."

Zheng Guangming felt a little embarrassed because he couldn't help at all.

"You haven't eaten yet, Bingkun. We just ate too."

"I haven't eaten yet, let's eat together."

Although he had already eaten a meal before coming back, Zhou Chen was still willing to have another meal with his family.

Zhou Chen did not go to work for the next two days. Shao Jingwen had already asked for leave for him, so he could go whenever he wanted.

Zhou Chen started going to work on the third day after he was released.

As soon as he returned to the publishing house, Zhou Chen felt a lot of strange looks. He pretended to ignore them and didn't take it to heart at all.

Having lived for so many years, how could he feel uncomfortable because of other people's gazes?

When he arrived at the office, Zhou Chen first greeted Shao Jingwen, and then went to the president's office.

"What, you're resigning as deputy editor?"

When President Wang heard Zhou Chen's words, he stood up from his chair in shock and looked at Zhou Chen in disbelief.

These days, he has only seen people trying their best to climb up, but has never seen anyone willing to resign from his cadre position. Zhou Chen really broadened his horizons.

Zhou Chen said calmly, "Yes, after what happened, if I continue to serve as deputy editor-in-chief, I'm afraid I will be dissatisfied. I thought about it and decided to resign from my position as deputy editor-in-chief."

President Wang fell into deep thought. After a moment, he sincerely advised: "Bingkun, I think you should not take the previous incident to heart. You were wronged. The company has already issued a notice on this point. No one will have any opinion about you. Lao Shao even wanted to give you the position of editor-in-chief, but you don't even want to be the deputy editor-in-chief now."

He really didn't want Zhou Chen to be demoted. During the seven years Zhou Chen had been at the publishing house, he was definitely the number one figure in the publishing house. With such a good reputation, it was already a disgrace for him to be just a deputy editor-in-chief.

What's more, he knew Zhou Chen very well. Zhou Chen was not only well-educated and could write poems and articles, but was also proficient in several languages. Many times, even his speeches were written by Zhou Chen.

He has so much time to win over such a talent that how could he possibly have any opinion about Zhou Chen just because of a false accusation?

He had good intentions, but Zhou Chen said firmly: "President, I know you mean well, but I have made up my mind. The reason I gave up the position of deputy editor-in-chief is not only because of this matter, but also because my wife is pregnant again. We already have a child at home, and now my sister's child is added. If there is another one, my wife will definitely be overwhelmed by herself. I want to relax a little and help my wife more."

This made President Wang even more speechless. He sincerely advised: "Bingkun, I'm an experienced person. In my experience, men should still focus on their careers. Only when a man has a good career can he have a high status in the family. Things like raising children should be left to women. Why are you joining in the fun?"

But Zhou Chen was determined. No matter how President Wang tried to persuade him, he was very resolute. President Wang had no choice but to agree after trying his best to persuade him.

After Shao Jingwen learned the news, he was so angry that he scolded Zhou Chen a few words.

Zhou Chen accepted the criticism with a smile but still refused to listen to the advice, which made Shao Jingwen helpless.

The news that Zhou Chen voluntarily gave up the position of deputy editor-in-chief soon spread throughout the publishing house. Many people were very surprised, but some people were secretly happy.

There is one job for every person, and now that a cadre position has appeared, naturally some people will be interested in it.

Zhou Chen doesn’t have time to care about those things. Now he just concentrates on doing his original job as a magazine content editor.

After Zhou Chen returned home, he also told Zheng Juan about this matter.

Zheng Juan obviously couldn't understand why her husband didn't want to be a good cadre anymore. Even though Zhou Chen said that he wanted to spend more time with her and the children, Zheng Juan still felt a little resentful and felt that her husband's future was more important.

Although she felt a little resentful in her heart, she quickly adjusted herself. Since Zhou Chen didn't want to do it anymore, she wouldn't force him.

She didn't say anything, but Li Suhua, as a mother, couldn't help it. After she found out, she caught Zhou Chen and scolded and beat him.

The Zhou family had finally produced a talent, but now he gave up the path to promotion. She was so angry that she asked Zheng Juan to write a letter to Zhou Zhigang, asking the old man to teach Zhou Chen a lesson.

But it is obvious that no one can change the decision made by Zhou Chen.

The reason he gave for resigning from the position of deputy editor-in-chief was just an excuse. In fact, he was more preparing for next year's college entrance examination.

The college entrance examination will be held next year, and he will pass it 100%. At that time, will it be easier to resign as a deputy editor-in-chief or a junior editor?

The answer is obvious.

From now on, his choice seems to be problematic, but he believes that everyone will understand him after the college entrance examination next year.

Anyway, he now has the self-flowing water line and can get a lot of money every month, so he is not short of money.

The incident passed quickly, and before long, Zhou Chen's matter was no longer a "hot search" in the publishing house.

Although Zhou Chen resigned from the position of deputy editor-in-chief, Shao Jingwen was still the editor-in-chief, so no one in "Golden Land" magazine dared to offend Zhou Chen, not even the newly appointed deputy editor-in-chief.

No longer a leader, Zhou Chen naturally felt a lot more relaxed and just muddled through the days.

Taking advantage of his free time, he made a special visit to Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen. This time, the two of them really helped him a lot, and he was sincerely grateful.

Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen were very happy to see that Zhou Chen was fine. They held Zhou Chen's hand and kept talking to him. At the same time, they also taught Zhou Chen earnestly, asking him to be more careful in the future and never involve politics in writing poetry.

Zhou Chen was deeply touched by the concern of these two elders, and secretly decided in his heart that he must come and accompany them more often in the future.

January has passed in the blink of an eye.

Zhou Chen can now get off work early every day. On this day, he made an appointment with Cai Xiaoguang to go to a restaurant for dinner together.

"Bingkun, Zhou Rong contacted me."

When Cai Xiaoguang spoke, he watched Zhou Chen's expression. He knew that Zhou Chen must be very dissatisfied with Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng.

But Zhou Chen did not show any anger when he heard it.

In fact, during this period, Zhou Rong also called him, but he always turned her down without even saying a word. He also did not let Zheng Juan open the letter he sent back.

Since Zhou Rong couldn't contact herself, it was natural for her to find Cai Xiaoguang.

"What did she tell you?"

Cai Xiaoguang said: "I told her about your situation, and she expressed deep regret for getting you into trouble, and she asked me to apologize to you."

"hehe."

Zhou Chen chuckled disdainfully and looked at Cai Xiaoguang. After a few seconds, Cai Xiaoguang's expression could no longer be maintained.

"Okay, well, I'll be honest. Zhou Rong didn't say that, but she really cares about you."

Zhou Chen waved his hands and said, "Alright, Brother Xiaoguang, Zhou Rong is my sister. I know her better than you. She only cares about Feng Huacheng right now. How could she care about me? Even if she knew that I was detained for more than ten days, she probably wouldn't care too much. She might even say that it's nothing anyway and she didn't suffer much. Her Feng Huacheng is the one who suffered the most..."

Cai Xiaoguang was even more embarrassed because everything Zhou Chen said was right.

When he told Zhou Rong that Zhou Chen was implicated by her and Feng Huacheng and had been locked up for more than ten days, Zhou Rong did express her concern in a light tone, but it was only one sentence, and then she asked him if there was any way he could help her save Feng Huacheng.

He also felt that Zhou Rong was a little too harsh on her own brother, so he wanted to help her, but he didn't expect Zhou Chen to see through his mistake.

"Bingkun, she is your sister after all. It is not easy for her now. Her husband has been locked up and there is no news from him. She is the most helpless now."

"She's helpless, and she deserves it."

Zhou Chen sarcastically mocked Cai Xiaoguang in front of him: "Brother Xiaoguang, I don't know what she said to you, but I seriously advise you not to help her. Feng Huacheng has done this himself, let him bear the consequences. Otherwise, my fate may be yours."

Cai Xiaoguang's face changed slightly. He was obsessed with Zhou Rong, but that didn't mean he was stupid.

Zhou Chen was arrested and detained for more than ten days before he even tried to help. If he had taken action, who knows what the outcome would have been.

"Then what should we do? We can't just watch her suffer like this."
